my jaunt

I'm the little boy in the candy store
my hands are full
yet I still want more
too much good and my jaws are sore
enlightened by the things I adore

I'm fighting back to where I once stood
redirecting and feeling good
I've closed the doors like i knew I would
Opened up to the world I should

The long dark drive
on the winding road
navigational assistance
and personal growth

Back on course
and trying to understand
LOVE is a marathon
and not a one night stand

I've done my best to understand
what it is to be a man
breaking barriers and making a stand
making no illusions of who I am

tomorrow is a golden day
today I fix the world and say
Give me peace, love and a home
where love is not the exception but the rule!
